Stern
"9 Ball" (Prototype)
Rom Mod
Problems:
1.
Lock-out problems (ball not
kicking out of lane, or outhold,
etc.) appear to be solved. (Left
lane is now run approximately
the same as the walker in
FLIGHT 2000. This should
correct all lock-out problems.)
2.
The game no longer gives out
random credits.
3.
Problems with SPECIAL award
not paying out when set to extra
ball corrected.
4.
Game now keeps correct High
Score to Date bookkeeping.
5.
Tilting the game while ball is in
left lane no longer locks up the
game.
6.
Add-a-ball feature now keeps
correct track of extra balls.
(Before it would only keep track
of 3, the 4th one would reset it
to 0.)
7.
Bonus multiplier now resets
correctly when threshold is
reached.
Cure:
Replace four original E PROMS
with updated 9 Ball V-60 U1, U2,
U5 and U6 E PROMS.
